Choosing KCP was largely to do with the ease of application. A lot of other summer courses required a lot of paperwork and recommendations and transcripts that are a big pain to gather. But KCP’s application process was very easy and self-explanatory! Also, the student life photos looked interesting!

—Sabrina Greene

I’d say the textbooks were effective, both the ones made by KCP and Minna No Nihongo. They’re thorough and provide a lot of useful information. I use them a lot even when just searching for grammar points or vocabulary. I like the games we’d play in class, too, like role playing about going on trips or eating out at a restaurant and the problems that can or cannot happen. It’s fun and stimulating and gets you thinking on your feet in Japanese

Very much enjoyed all the grammar and conversation practice!

Curtis from Summer Short 2017

The pair work in class was beneficial, but mostly the teachers made class very engaging and made me want to learn.

I think the amount of listening comprehension practice I got through each class was very helpful.

Thomas from Summer 2024

The Yamanashi field trip was very memorable because all the students in our program got closer through a greatly enriching experience which I remembered enjoying thoroughly!
